Hashtag Effect

This film features Christian Watson of the previous @1924us and his story of how the effects of a very large following of over half a million began to weigh on him. In our current society many people hold Social Media Influencers, like Christian, on a pedestal- Seeing their perfectly curated lives each day, not realizing that they are just as susceptible to the negative effects social media can cause. Christian speaks about how his character developed with the growth of his following. Concluding with a departure from his fan base on Instagram to return to his authentic self and save the relationships dearest to him.
